As Joseph told you, in case you have Windows 10 it's probably you've turned
Tablet Mode On.
If this is the case, try pressing WINDOWS+A to open Action Center and press the
Tablet Mode button with SPACEBAR to disable this toggle.
Hope it helps!

Insert-v will always bring up something. But in this case, press it while focus
is in an open message.

Mrne,
Can it be that win-d or win-m is not working?
Or try: press ins-3 first then win-m.
Ins-3 will tell Jaws that the next key is for windows. Same as ins-b in
Window-Eyes.
You can also minimize programs bij pressing alt-space and choose
Minimize in that menu.
Hope this helps.

It's odd, but I've never had this Firefox hanging problem that others are
speaking about. I just turn the virtual cursor off so I can navigate the tree

When did this start. Maybe system resotre back to that point will fix it.
Unless you can find a setting in windows or something.

Hi,
Which OS are you using? If it is Windows 10 and if my guess is correct, then
you're not the only one who've just tasted tablet mode.

Hi,
As far as I know, when reading something in Microsoft Outlook (not to be
confused with Outlook.com) the classic keystroke for find actually forwards
the current message or item, so you have to press F4 instead.
In any case, Find Next command is F3.
Hope it helps!

Just go to c:\ and see if you have a folder called Program Files (X86) in
addition to Program Files. If you have both folders, yours is 64-bit, if
you only have the latter, it is 32-bit. The former folder is where it puts
the 32-bit programs when the computer is 64-bit.
